There are two types of tricks in freestyle motocross competitions: those that are good under perfect weather conditions, and those that are doable when the winds are too high but the show must go on.Today in Las Vegas, at the Monster Energy FMX High Rollers competition, the show had to go on, and with it came the more conservative, less dangerous approaches to FMX riding.As Freestyle Motocross got underway early on Saturday, with winds gusting up to 20 mph, the approach for most of the riders in the field was to transform their competition runs into a one-way directional trick contest with the wind at their backs, including veteran riders such as Javier Villegas, Jarry McNeil and Nate Adams.But all that changed when Taka Higashino took to the course. Higashino faced the wind, rode the course in its entirety while landing more tricks than any other rider, and catapulted himself to the top of the start list after the end of round 1. Then, rather than rest on his laurels, Higashino came back for run 2 to best his previous score, winning the event with a final score of 92.33.I almost crashed on the second run, but Im glad I landed clean and finished, said Higahino.Following close behind Higahino was second place finisher Adam Jones with a 90.33, and third place finisher Levi Sherwood with an 89.33. Both of those riders followed Higashinos lead and transformed the one-trick approach into an overall FMX course, separating the top three from the remainder of the field.1. Take Higashino 92.332. Adam Jones 90.333. Levi Sherwood 89.334. Javier Villegas 84.335. Jackson Strong 79.00Dirt Sharks Best WhipIn Dirt Sharks Best Whip, Tom Parsons took the final win, followed by Jarryd McNeil in second and Destin Cantrell in third place. The final event of the day, Best Whip followed the direction of the wind and managed to go off without too much of an interference from the shifting winds surrounding Las Vegas.1. Tom Parsons2.

Destin CantrellQuarterpipe High JumpWhile most of Las Vegas was either still in bed or just getting their morning coffee, the Monster Energy FMX High Rollers competition kicked off on Saturday morning with the debut of Quarterpipe High Jump at the Sam Boyd Stadium.Originally scheduled to run midday, the competition was moved to an earlier start because of high winds in the vicinity. And when a 200 lb. dirt bike is flying 30-feet in the air, thats definitely a safe bet to make.In the end, Australian Jarryd McNeil took the win with a quarter pipe air height of 152, even after dislocating a finger and popping it back in during the course of competition. McNeils approach to Quarterpipe Big Air, a relatively new field in the realm of FMX, was to carve almost the entire width of the landing before reeling it back in, which when done under 20 mph wind gusts, is not easy.Finishing behind McNeil was Axell Hodges with a height of 150 and Kris Foster with a height of 127.1. Jarry McNeil 1522. Axell Hodges 1503. Kris Foster 120For exclusive updates, visit Monster Energy or follow along on Monsters Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Former World Anti-Doping Agency president John Fahey says it should be a clear-cut decision: Russia should not be allowed to compete at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.Fahey told The Associated Press on Thursday that Russia should definitely not be going to Rio and said the integrity of the 2016 Olympics and future games is in jeopardy.This is widespread corruption, not individual, not a group, not one sport, Fahey said during a telephone interview. Its a conspiracy of the state through the ministry of sport, the anti-doping organization and their security service and the previously accredited Moscow lab.They have all conspired to bring this about. The only way you can support the clean athletes who will be competing is to make it known that widespread cheating will not be tolerated.The International Olympic Committees executive board will meet via teleconference Sunday to consider whether Russia, host of the Winter Games at Sochi in 2014, will compete at the Summer Games next month.The IOC is examining the legal options of a blanket ban following a report by WADA investigator Richard McLaren that accused Russias sports ministry of overseeing doping of athletes.McLarens report uncovered a state-run doping scheme that implicated 28 sports, both summer and winter, and ran from 2011 to 2015. The investigation told of 312 positive tests that Russias deputy minister of sport directed lab workers not to report to WADA. Russias intelligence serve was also involved, the report said.It also prrovided further details of the swapping of samples to protect Russian dopers, including medalists, at the Sochi Games.ddddddddddddThe Court of Arbitration for Sport will issue a verdict Thursday on Russias appeal to overturn an IAAF ban on its track and field athletes for the games in Rio. The IOC will take that ruling into account before making its own decision.Fahey said he wasnt in a position to comment on the pending CAS decision, saying he hadnt read enough of the background on the case.But really, it never should have gotten that far based on what Russia has been accused of the past two years, Fahey said.Tatiana Grigorieva, a Russian-born pole vaulter who won Olympic silver for Australia at the Sydney Games in 2000, told Fox Sports Australia she agreed Russia should be banned, adding its obvious by now that the system is rotten.The fact that the new findings are saying that (Russias) secret service are involved in this, it scares me, she said. It goes a lot deeper than just sport or the Olympic Committee.Fahey says the publics perception of the Olympic movement is at stake if Russia is not prevented from sending a team to Rio.The McLaren report makes it abundantly clear that if they want to safeguard the integrity of the Olympic Games, they need to ban Russia, Fahey said. To have Russia there will put into jeopardy the worlds view of the Olympics.
